1 ft FOREWORD With Christ as our guide and His word as our chart, the annual voy- age of the WMC Central is coming to an end. For fifty-one years Cen- tral has been preparing dents to go out onto the sea of life to cope with the problems and heartaches of our modern world. May the views through the portholes of our ship be a lasting reminder of the activities of our voyage. For this purpose, we, the staff, are happy to present to our friends the 1957 Centralian. CO-DEDICATION On October 15, 1906, the Wesleyan Methodist College (then known as the Wesleyan Methodist Bible Institute) opened its doors for the first time. One who had much to do with the early history of the college is Mrs. Nellie L. Harrington Leming, wife of the first president, the Rev. L. J. Harrington. Together with her husband she taught and aided in the work of the school in any way possible. Between that time and the present several presidents and their wives, all of whom have made a contribution, have come and gone. Mrs. R. C. Mullinax, wife of the present president, serves as postal clerk. Her winning ways have made her popular with the students, especially at mail time. To these two, who have meant much to the school, the wife of the first president and the wife of the present presi- dent, we affectionately dedicate the 1957 Centraiian. Page Five Page Six Advertisements 79 As officers, the administration and faculty have given their untiring assistance in making this year a profitable one in preparing each student to fulfill his purpose in life. To these we pay tribute and pray that their heavenly reward may repay them for the sacrifices they are making to see Christ's kingdom advance. Page Seven _ PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Wherefore, Sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God . . These are the immortal words of St. Paul on his tempestuous voyage to Rome. His faith was not dependent on cir- cumstances. The ship was exceed- ingly tossed with a tempest, neither stars nor sun had appeared for many days, and all hope that they should be saved was abandoned. Yet amidst the howl of the tempest came this voice of faith. The good ship W. M. C. Central started her fifty-first voyage across an uncharted sea on September 4, 1956. She is sailing through troub- lous waters. World conditions are hazardous; war clouds hang low; communism threatens to destroy liberty, peace, religion, the home, and all that we hold dear. Modern- ism corrupts the church and blights the minds and hearts of the youth of our land. A harvest of juvenile delinquency, crime, and corruption in government follows in the wake of its teaching. It is a dark tempest indeed, and many have given up hope. But we Christians have a message of faith for this dark hour. We believe God, and therefore we may tell a lost world to be of good cheer. The need of this world is Jesus. It is the glorious privilege and duty of all on board the good ship, whether crewmen or passengers, to proclaim to the world that there is hope and cheer in Jesus Christ. t ft I OFFICERS College DAVID 8UDENS1EK B Rel , B D., Th.M.

We study to understand ourselves, to understand others, to make society a better place in which to live, and to learn for learning's sake. As passengers on this year's voyage of the WMC Central, we have recognized the challenge of daily preparation for the knowledge which will motivate our lives for the greatest voyage—the voyage of life.

Those in the Department of Science are eligible for membership tn this organization, which sponsors programs of interest through- out the year. STUDENT COUNCIL 1 The Student Council, a very important organization on the W. M. C. Central, acts as a mediator between passengers and officers. It sponsors Friday morn- ing chapel exercises, the Christmas float, and operation of the Student Center. Membership includes Dr. Burns, faculty sponsor; Harold King, student body presi- dent; and a representative from each class in the school. Page Fifty-One Harvest Day was the occasion of the Golden Jubilee celebration of Wesleyan Methodist College. The inauguration of Dr. R. C. Mullinax as president for his third quadrennium was the highlight of the day. Representatives of several colleges participated in the academic procession. Some five hundred people enjoyed the day's activities, which also included the bountiful dinner, the afternoon service, and the recreational activities. Page Fifty-Two SHIP'S CREW The crew of the W. M. C. Central are passengers who work part time, thereby earn- ing part of the expenses of their voyage. These crew members work in the offices, dining hall, kitchen, dormitories, library, student center, and as maintenance assistants. They add much to making our trip a more pleasurable one. Page Fifly-Four Without a true appreciation of the finer things in life, we students will never gain complete enjoyment of the Creator's handiwork. Through organizations of aesthetic character this appreciation is made real to us. L WHO’S WHO IN BIBLE COLLEGE JERRY HANSON During the two years that Jerry has been at Cen- tral, his striking personality has won for him many friends who have confidence in him as a sincere Christian leader. Serving as president of the Wesleyan Youth and F.M.F., being a member of the College Choir, and being an active worker in the Christian Service Organization did not keep him from main- taining a high average in his studies. As we honor Jerry in Who's Who in the Bible college, we pray God's richest blessings upon him. HAROLD KING Because of his dependability, good judgment, his Christian attitudes, and his winning personality man- ifest in his first three years at Central, Harold was chosen to be president of the student body far this year. In addition to these qualities, his sincere in- terest in others and his diligence in his studies make Harold worthy of a place in Who's Who in the Bible college. 1 WHO’S WHO IN JUNIOR COLLEGE DORA LOIS COILE Energetic, willing, persistent, thorough, co-opera- tive, studious, devoted to God, and ready to serve others are all adjectives that describe Dora Lois. She is active in the Christian Service Organization ond other clubs. Her friends showed their confidence in her by electing her treasurer of the freshmen class. Furthermore, their esteem in her as a business woman was shown by their electing her to be the business manager of the 1957 Cenlrahan. One who is so de- serving of honor, yet cares so little about it, truly earns the position of Who's Who in junior college. ROXANA PUTMAN With cheerful willingness to co-operate, Roxana accepts responsibilities in many phases of life at Cen- tral. Her faithful work as editor of the 1957 Centra- han, member of the College Choir, and treasurer of her Sunday school class indicate her qualifications, not only for Who's Who but also for making a valua- ble contribution to her generation. Because it is man- ifest in each phase of her life, Roxana's consistent Christian example is the crowning feature of her life. WHO’S WHO IN HIGH SCHOOL HATTIE CALHOON For the past four years Hattie has demonstrated her leadership ability by presiding at the helm of her class. During the past two years she has worked faithfully on the Centralian as typist and associate editor and has been a member of the College Choir and trio. In addition to her extracurricular activities she is one of the leaders of her class scholastically. Her consistent Christian experience, her pleasant personality, and her musical and scholastic attainment make Hattie a deserving winner of a Who's Who position in high school. BEN RINGSDORF Can love of extraccurricular activities and good grades go together? Ben's record here at Central has proved they can. His musical abilities are demon- strated through his singing in the College Choir and his playing the trombone. His participation in sports, clubs, and class activities does not keep him from ranking near the top of his class scholastically. Possessing those attributes requisite to a successful life, Ben has merited a place in the high school Who's Who. COLLEGE CHOIR Weeks and months of preparation are spent in getting this organization ready for its season of travels throughout the Southern Area. Hundreds of miles are covered each year by the choir in sacred concerts. PERSONNEL: First Row-.

Page Sixty-Nine Page Seventy Sneak Snapshots Poge Seventy-One September 3. We began making preparations for the journey. September 4-6. After long hours of waiting, taking care of official papers, and being informed of the activities on the ship, we were formally made pas- sengers on the W.M.C. Central. September 7. This was the big day! We went aboard ship and began the routine activities that we were to participate in while on our journey. September 8. This day ended with a get-ac- quainted party for the officers and passengers on the deck of the ship. September 19. Rush Day! A day of excitement and suspense for each of the literary societies, for both were doing their best to capture the vote of the new passengers. September 28. To enrich the spiritual aspect of our lives on the voyage, a visiting chaplain from Ohio, the Rev. Eldon Martin, led in a glorious revival that inspired the hearts of every pasenger and officer. October 16. We docked for a few days in order to allow youth from the Southern Area to come aboard to enjoy the fellowship and spiritual in- spiration provided by the Youth Convention. October 19. Harvest Day was a day of celebration, commemorating the fiftieth voyage of the W.M.C. Central. Captain R. C. Mullinax was inaugurated for his third four-year term of office. October 25. Boom! Right out of the clear blue sky some of the passengers of higher rank sneaked off and left us in a hole, to go on a special voy- age of their own for a couple of days. October 27. Upon returning they found the recrea- tion deck decorotively cluttered with scenes of Halloween. When the weary wanderers were first sighted on board, shouts of welcome could be heard. November 27. Everyone resumed his regular duties after Thanksgiving until further orders were re- ceived from the captain. November 29. Another group of passengers of lower rank than the first group ventured toward shore for a few days of relaxation from the ship. December 1. The tired and excited seamen re- turned, bedecked with a new style of sailor hat, to find an early visit from Santa Claus owaiting them in the officers' quarters. December 14. A group of talented pasengers dis- played their acting skill as the junior college fresh- men presented The Christmas Carol. December 17. Everyone on the ship gathered on deck to sing Christmas carols. December 18. As we put into harbor for a brief time, many guests came on board for a Christmas dinner. December 19. While the ship was in port, the cap- tain decided to let everybody go ashore for a short vacation. January 3. Report for duty! Thus began another part of the voyage. January 17-20. These few days we came to shore to visit our missionary friends. Our hearts were stirred and our concern was so great that we de- cided to take the responsibility of supporting an- other missionary, Arthur Calhoon, missionary to Haiti. January 25. We anchored for the week end, after a few days of strenuous examinations. January 28, After losing a few passengers and gaining some new ones, everyone received new duties. February 19-21. The first interruption of our new duties was the Southern Area Ministerial Conven- tion. Dr. Paul Rees was the guest speaker. March 1. A group of the seamen exhibited their talent when they presented the play, Girls Are Like That. March 7. Before heading out to sea, we were hon- ored by having Karl W. Johnston, Chaplain of the U.S.S. Spartanburg, to lead us in a spring revival. April 14. A selected group of seamen presented the musical program for Easter, Olivet to Calvary. April 18. Orders were received from headquarters; all crewmen were released from duty for the spring holidays, and all pasengers were allowed to go ashore. April 23. All crewmen resumed duty and all pas- sengers were on board for the last stage of the trip. May 27-29. The officials of the W M.C. Central made their last inspection of the pasengers be- fore entering the harbor. May 30. After the ship anchored off shore, the chapel was filled with excited voices. Suddenly a calm fell over the crowd as one class of de- parting passengers marched in. A few tears were shed as the chief officer read the retrospection of the voyage. May 31. Many of the former passengers and crew- men visited the ship for a banquet, june 1 Strains of music floated out over the water as all on board gathered for the last recital given by the musicians in the group. June 2. A busy, memorable Sunday—the last Sun- day aboard the ship! Everyone gathered in the chapel to hear a visiting chaplain. In the afternoon the choir presented its last program, and at night we enjoyed another missionary service. June 3. The W M.C. Central finally docked. Many of the passengers were filled with mixed emotions as they stepped ashore, some to enter the greatest voyage on the sea of life and some to return for the next voyage of the W.M.C. Central. Another voyage has ended, and the good ship, the W.M.C. Central, has come into port, having braved the storms of life that the school year has brought. With Christ as our Pilot we were steered safely to our destination. The passengers and officers alike agreed that time flew. OFFICERS MULLINAX DR.
